Mental health in the digital age

Abstract

October 10 is World Mental Health Day. The theme to “Make mental health and well-being for all a global priority” highlights the ubiquitous need to address the world's growing mental health crisis. Although effective interventions for mental disorders exist, barriers to access mean there has been no evidence of a global reduction in mental health burden since 1990. In fact, a 2022 world mental health report published by WHO showed that global prevalence of anxiety and depressive disorders rose more than 25% during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.
